Special Interest Charged Wendell W y a 1 1, Republican state chairman, led the assault on Morse yesterday, issuing a statement In which he said "The people of Oregon should demand an explanation from Sen. Morse, who denounces special interest legislation, regarding the pri vate relief bill he put through Congress for out-of-state con tractors." "Oregon's self-styled opponent of special interests sponsored a private relief bill to pay S182, 000 to five contractors, none of whom had an Oregon address," Wyatt charged. The GOP chairman added that President Truman vetoed the bill because ". . . this measure pro poses, for the benefit of a limited few, special treatment outside the framework of general law applicable to government con tracts." Neuberger Hits GOP Sen.

This area has 725 Brownies, 464 Intermedi ates and 42 Senior Girl Scouts. Directing the activities of the 94 troops in the Medford dis trict are 206 adult leaders and as sistants and troop committee members. Assisting the leaders are 12 board members and 10 committee members who serve Josephine and Jackson counties. In Girl Scouting, girls from 7 through 17 obtain practical ex periences in the home and com munity. From only 12 girls in 1912 to approximately 3 million in 1956 tells a part of the Girl Scout story. Girl Scouting has been a success in meeting the needs of millions of girls to be long to a group of their own, where they work, learn and play together. Each Important In Girl Scouting, each girl is important for what she is, rath er than who she is or what she does. Each girl has a chance to explore and show her talents in her own age group; she learns to take responsibility and to be an YOU-ullAHDER'AND OREGON active citizen in a girl-sized de mocracy. In her camp experience, she learns to live happily outdoors on her own resources. In Scout ing, girls are partners with ad ults; their leaders guide rather than dictate; membership is vol untary and 99 per cent of the adult workers in Girl Scouting in the nation are volunteers and only 1 per cent are paid workers Girl Scouts of all ages are pledged to help others and do so in many ways. They baby sit for PTA's and for voters; they work in hospitals, and as office aides; they act as safety patrols on school streets and help in many kinds of civic drives, in cluding the UMC. They collect books and recon dition toys for hospitalized chil dren, help beautify parks, and aid in conserving natural re sources. . Make Friends Girl Scouts make new friends and learn how to get along to gether and their friendship does not stop at the town line or the nation's borders. They have many friends in other lands, with1 whom they exchange let ters, gifts, and even visits as part of their international friend ship program. The Girl Scouts of the United States are part of a world wide movement, belonging to the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, represented in 34 different countries. The $10,000 allocated to Girl Scouting by the UMC is 60 per cent of the budget of the Rogue Valley Area Girl Scout Council. The remaining 40 per cent is re ceived from the Ashland-Talent Youth Fund Drive and the Jose phine County United Fund. No funds frm the UMC are used for the camping program. The annual cookie sale during Girl Scout Week in March raises funds for the building and main tenance project of the establish ed camp. Low Echo, and for the day camps. The Al Sarena company "needed no patents on public land if it wanted to engage solely in the mining of ore, but needed patents only to clear the way for cutting of Rogue River National forest timber growing on the dis puted claims," he said. He said there were a "number of substantial mining companies producing ore without patents on public lands in the West." and that the patents merely allowed the Al Sarena firm to cut the timber, as it' could have mined the claim without a patent. Morse Charges 'Trick' Filling in for the absent Sen. Kennedy as featured speaker at the University of Portland last night, Sen. Morse charged that "McKay is using an old trick that lawyers use when you haven't got a case against oppos ing counsel, then abuse the counsel." He said the absentee charges being leveled against him were part of a smear campaign-, and told his audience that the Con gressional Quarterly reported him voting on 96 per cent of the bills it considered to be key votes in the 12 years he has been in the Senate. McKay said today that he had sent a telegram to Assistant Sec retary Ervin L. Peterson of the department of agriculture, urg ing that the soil bank program be applied to assist approximate ly 400 farm families in the Mil-ton-Freewater orchard area. McKay said that he was urg ing the aid because disaster loans proposed earlier won't work. Disaster loans are not the an swer because repayment in two years is out of the question their orchards cannot be produc ing again in that time," McKay said. Eisenhower Returns To Washington, D. C.
